Mice were injected subcutaneously at the base of the tail and the spleen was harvested and analyzed as described in Materials and Methods. Data is shown as mean ± SD (n = 6–8 mice). Significant differences from PBS treatment using Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn's posttest are outlined with *, p<0.05; **, p<0.01; ***, p<0.001.
